About us
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]
Travel for Life Now is based in the New York area and Singapore. One of us (Sue) is from New York, and one from Singapore (Reggie). We see the world in different ways and that influences where we go and how we write.
We offer personal reflections on near and far away places with a humanistic world view, scattered with little known tidbits, out-of-the-way places and historical background. Our trips range from popular venues to hidden treasures. We try to offer new ways of poking around and about our own back yards, our country and our world.
Through our travels and writing, we like to understand the history and events–current and not-so-current–that have influenced how people see the world.
We’re not afraid to pay for things to do, but we don’t like to break the bank.

Things we enjoy

Ancient Temples
We love ancient temples and other historical sites–Cambodia’s Angkor Wat temple complex, the Egyptian temples, Indonesia’s Borobudur, Sir Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, China’s Terra Cotta Wars and the Great Wall, Peru’s Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, Chile’s Easter Island … Seeing what humans have created 1,000, or 3,000 or 5,000 years ago gives us an appreciation of humane ingenuity and will to create.
Food and Culture
While culture is embedded in all of the activities above, we also like to see the local scene. In Austin, Texas, that might mean Graffiti Park, the Fuzebox (performance) and Moontower (comedy) Festivals. Or, a French ballet performance at night at Angkor Wat or dinner in the Sinai Desert with Berbers or Bedouins. And, we seek out local restaurants and street food where ever we go.
We have been to more than 50 countries and six continents. Â In addition to Travel for Life Now, Sue has also published on Women Who Explore, Adventuress Travel Magazine, Female Travel Bloggers and Politics for the People.
Wild Life and Nature
Nature and the wilderness likewise inspire us. Sleeping in an ice hotel, hanging out with bears in the Alaska wilderness, kayaking in Antarctica, chasing the northern lights across Scandinavia, following a black rhino in Tanzania, and camping in the Sahara desert are a few of our favorite adventures.
